What this covers

The questions

  1. The graph shows velocity in metres per second against time in seconds. What is the acceleration?
  2. Use the same graph. How far does the object travel in the ten seconds shown?
  3. What kind of motion does the graph drawn show?
  4. Use the graph. Over which stretch is the acceleration greatest in size?
  5. Use the same graph. What is the total distance travelled?
  6. Which of these are true of the motion drawn?
  7. What is happening to the object whose velocity is graphed here?
